Syria carbon profile
Syria emits roughly 25 Mt of CO₂ per year — about 0.07% of global emissions, ranking #75 worldwide. At 1.1 tonnes per person (#93 per capita), its footprint is far below the global average of ~4.7 t.
Emissions have fallen sharply over the past five years (-30%) and fallen sharply over the decade (-60%). The sustained downward trajectory suggests structural decarbonization rather than a one-off dip.
Renewables supply about 5% of electricity. Electricity remains dominated by fossil fuels, making the power sector the biggest decarbonization lever.
If the current pace holds, Syria could cut another ~30% by 2030. Accelerating renewable build-out is the highest-impact opportunity.
